August 3, 2025,Hohensteinrunde 💚🌲

After we were at Heide Park yesterday, I needed to get a little active today. 💪 Since I didn't feel like going to the Harz or Solling mountains, I decided to hike to the Hohnenstein Cliffs.
Uphill via the stairway 🥵 and then a relaxed descent ✌🏻...so that was the last day with 24 🫠😅

When the weather is not the best, we head to Hohenstein ⛰️ ignoring the view over the cliffs because of the strong gusts 💨 😌

Today we hiked up Hohenstein without any fog. After a challenging climb on slippery ground, we were rewarded with a fantastic view. Then we descended on the snow-covered steps. It was a really lovely afternoon hike.
